Seattle at Phoenix

Outside of a 3-6 mark at midseason Seattle has gone 14-3 otherwise, and is currently the hottest team in the WNBA. Seattle has claimed victory in eight of their last nine contests, and has gone 2-0 against the Mercury already this season winning at Phoenix and at home in Seattle. Phoenix has been opposite Seattle in the fact that they have surrounded a midseason 8-3 run with a 3-11 mark before and after and the current run is 3-7. Although this team scores at will, so do their opponents, and all too often at a much higher rate. The Storm is just a half game behind San Antonio for the lead in the west, and we expect a big effort from them in this game.
